I read that article, but I didn't see any quantitative data about the percent change or the total numbers of birds or nesting birds or juveniles. Now don't get me wrong I'm no expert and that does make sense, I just would like to see some data back it up. For what it's worth, we're trying to add some wetlands to our farm, about 8-10 acres or so. Thanks for putting these topics out here by the way to educate hunters. (I'm not from your state, just heard its pretty lonely on this state forum)
